Description
Dynamical structural and electronic disorder at nano and mesoscale plays an important role in the functionality of complex materials. Here local heterogeneity and weak interactions developing between structural units cause dynamical spatio-temporal configurations with correlated disorder. Visualizing these configurations is fundamental for understanding the physical properties of complex matter and requires advanced methodologies based on high precision X ray measurements. We discuss the connections between the dynamical correlated disorder at nanoscale and the functionality in recent cases studies.
